My husband really loves this name… one of the few that has sparked a strong reaction from him! I like it too, but I’m just not sure if it’s too “out there” & different. I’m sure our parents would give us the usual “I’ve never heard that name” reaction… along with the “look”. haha. But that’s why I don’t share much with them!
So I’m just curious… what are your thoughts on it?
I want to like it, but when I say it aloud I feel like I’m saying “[name]Tanis[/name]” with a lisp/cold! I usually have that problem with names ending in -th.
I’ve never heard of this before… and I don’t really care for it. Maybe it’s the fact that it’s unfamiliar, or maybe it’s the sound (I’m pronouncing it like tan and [name]Lilith[/name]) but I just don’t like it that much! Maybe [name]Tabitha[/name] is a good substitute.
[name]Hope[/name] that helps!
The name [name]Tanith[/name], alternative spelling of Tanit, is a Carthaginian lunar goddess of the Phoenician pantheon so it has an interesting history. It also has numerous literary connections. I think it would make a bold and interesting choice. I like it.
i love it, it’s really cool yet accessible. i don’t think “[name]Tanis[/name] with a lisp” at all - i think of the author [name]Tanith[/name] [name]Lee[/name].
